Re: Rolling Stone's Top 5 Songs

that was horrible. I get you have to hit different genres but you have to have Stairway somewhere in there. Absolutely have to. Otherwise it invalidates your list.
Plus Rolling Stone became worthless to the music scene about the mid 90's.

The one constant through all the years, Ray, has been baseball. America has rolled by like an army of steamrollers. It has been erased like a blackboard, rebuilt and erased again. But baseball has marked the time. This field, this game: it's a part of our past, Ray. It reminds of us of all that once was good and it could be again. Oh... people will come Ray. People will most definitely come.

Without looking I would say Stairway, Hotel California, Imagine, Satisfaction, and Jail House Rock. Not necessarily my favorites, but what I would figure. I guess two of them were right, but can't believe Stairway isn't on there. RESPECT, really?

The editor of Rolling Stone picks a Rolling Stones song and "Like a Rolling Stone" as his top two. Think maybe he's trying to make Rolling Stone the mag relevant again?

In all fairness, Elvis wasn't a song writer - especially in his early days at Sun Records, or even the RCA days. Although some RCA songs had Elvis credited as a song writer, usually the author had to give up some royalties to Elvis just to get his song recorded by the greatest performer of his time.
